Seyfarth Shaw Opens Charlotte Office

Law firm Seyfarth Shaw has opened an office in Charlotte, the firm’s first in the region. The location marks the global firm’s 16th office.

The new office is located at 121 West Trade in Uptown Charlotte, and will be led by Seyfarth partners Frederick T. Smith and Eric Sidman, who live in Charlotte and will serve as office co-managing partners. The office will initially be comprised of eight to 10 lawyers from the firm’s Labor & Employment and Real Estate departments, as it grows into a full-service office.

“Charlotte is among the three fastest-growing U.S. cities, and the second-largest U.S. banking center,” said Sidman, a partner in the firm’s real estate department. “This is a dynamic market for our clients, and we look forward to strengthening our relationships here as we grow together.”
